The Celtics plan to take Hugo González NOW: "His level is.."

Boston Celtics chose Hugo González with their only first-round pick in the NBA Draft 2025 at the 29th position. Following the event, Brad Stevens, the team's GM, the architect behind the undefeated squad of 2024 who is now strategizing various moves to ease the franchise's financial burden, spoke about the Spanish player from Real Madrid, making it clear that they have been closely monitoring him for quite some time and are impressed:

"We've been watching Hugo for a long time, he's been on everyone's radar for quite some time, we've closely followed his year in the great organization and team that is Real Madrid, the under-18 tournaments, and that kind of stuff. I'm a big fan of his style of play. He's tough, plays with intensity, cuts, goes after the ball, competes as if he possesses the intangibles of a winner. There are areas he can improve, like everyone his age, but competitively, he's at a very high level."

The most crucial response came when he was asked about their plans to bring the player onboard:

"Yes."
